How the Icemaker Works
It will take several
hours for the freezer
to get cold enough
to make ice. Once
it reaches this
temperature, water
will fill the empty
cube mold.
When the cubes are
frozen, they are rotated
up and out of the mold.
The sweeper arm ejects
them into the ice storage
bin below.
The feeler arm
senses when the
bin is full and
signals the
icemaker to stop
ejecting more
cubes. However,
the mold has been
refilled and cubes
frozen so the new
supply is ready
when needed. As
soon as ice is removed from the bin, the feeler arm
signals that more is needed. Icemaker resumes
operation by ejecting ready-and-waiting frozen cubes.

How to Use Your Icemaker
1. To start the
icemaker, lower
the feeler arm
to the ON
(down)
position. Make
sure the ice bin
is at the rear of
the freezer
compartment,
below the icemaker.
2. When the icemaker is first connected you should
discard the first few batches of cubes.
3. The feeler arm must be free to operate upward and
outward over the top of the ice storage bin during
each ice-delivery cycle. Make sure packages in the
freezer compartment do not interfere with
its movement.
4. The ice storage bin should be cleaned occasionally
in warm water. Rinse and wipe dry. Be sure to raise
the icemaker feeler arm to the STOP (up) position
when cleaning the bin.
5. Keep ice level to keep it coming.
If cubes should build up in one
area of the ice storage bin after
being ejected from the mold,
just level them out with your
hand. Keep cubes distributed
evenly and the bin can reach maximum cube capacity.

Notes about the icemaker
• The icemaker ejects cubes in groups and it is normal
for several cubes to be joined together.
• Ice cubes that have been in the ice storage bin for a
considerable length of time may pick up off-flavor
tastes, stick together, and gradually become smaller.
We suggest that these cubes be thrown away.
• You may, on occasion, find a few smaller than
normal cubes in the bin. This is probably caused
by low water pressure at the time of water fill.
